We’re starting to get some of the Fall’s Oscar Pictures hitting home video, one of the most interesting documentaries of the year, and one classic Walt Disney film from the vaults. Not a bad weekend for home video.

It’s that time of year again—no, not the Academy Awards nominations (that’s tomorrow); rather, it’s time to find out who’s up for a Razzie. In a time-honored tradition (well, since, 1980), the Razzie nominations, honoring the absolute worst films of the year, are announced the day before the Oscar contenders. And the 33rd annual Razzie Awards, pinpointing the...

2012, like any other year, had its host of good and bad films. But it's hard to recall a year that also had so many disappointing films as well (not quite the same as bad films--we'll get into that below). To the sheer, just awful dreck from such perennial underachievers as Adam Sandler, Eddie Murphy, and Tyler Perry, to the frankly shocking disappointments from filmmakers who could have...

Paranormal Activity 4 had the lowest grossing opening weekend of any Paranormalsequel, which means that the franchise may yet get a fifth entry, but is either wearing out its welcome, or this entry wasn't marketed as well as its predecessors. Perhaps there's just nowhere left to go. Alex Cross didn't open, so who...

This weekend shows that Paramount still remembers how to do horror sequels as they've dashed off three quickie horror sequels in the last three years to capitalize on the success of Paranormal Activity. It reminds of their success with Friday the 13thfilms (though they were much more embarrassed of that franchise). And then there's Tyler...

Tyler Perry has taken a break from writing and directing to star in Rob Cohen's Alex Cross. It's the big screen adaptation of one of James Patterson's most popular characters. Unfortunately, the film sells the source material short. Alex Cross is nothing to write home about.

Despite the fact that it won’t be released until tomorrow, it has an abysmally low 27% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and the trailer was just awful, Alex Cross—yes, the serial killer film starring Tyler Perry as a cop pushed to the limit in his hunt for a madman (because that movie has never, ever been made before)—is already set to get a sequel.

Let’s start with the movie’s tag line: “Don’t Ever Cross… Alex Cross.” When that’s the best a film can come up with, you know you’re in trouble. Further, when the film is a reboot of the Alex Cross franchise (Kiss the Girls, Along Came a Spider) that replaces Morgan Freeman with Tyler Perry (a.k.a., the guy who writes, directs, and stars...

"Lost" briefly faced the "Twin Peaks" syndrome, when its hot young stars were briefly attached to hot movies, and were courted to the big screen. On his down time from the show, Matthew Fox made Smoking Aces, We Are Marshall, Vantage Point and Speed...
